Lost Trust = Lost Friendship

Trust once broken can not be fixed,
Its just like a piece of glass shuttered into many pieces,
Or a broken egg or even spilled water,
Nothing can really be done to fix the situation.

Forgiveness is encouraged among people,
And we are further advised to ,
Forgive and forget,
But the forgetting part has conditions attached.

We don't just forget,
Resume to normal life,
And catch up from where we left.

No no no,
I don't think so,
We are all humans and will wrong each other,
Once in a while.

The mistakes helps to bring out what we may have given a blind eye,
So they cheated on you and you caught them,
What if you never caught them?
You may never be able to truly know that side of them.

So do you forgive them and forget?
Embrace them with warm hugs,
And act like nothing happened,
Because you chose to forgive and forget?

Your friend betrayed you,
They even costed you to lose a job or a good deal,
Or even sent you to jail,
Then you embrace forgiveness culture.

Lost trust can never be fixed 100%,
Yes we can try to build friendship again,
But its not a continuation of the previous one,
Because the previous one is dead dead.

Being treated well and friendly by someone you wronged,
Should never be mistaken for things being normal again,
Its just another shot to do things right,
With a benefit of doubt.

Don't expect to be treated like before,
Or enjoy things you did,
This time round,
You are just a stranger trying out their second chance.
